            So if we would create milk in a lab, which is chemically identical to e.g. cow’s milk, but without any udder secretion involved, that wouldn’t be milk?

            What is milk if not just fatty water with a couple of nutrients?

            Our concept of “milk” goes beyond mere mammary gland secretes.
